Article assessments edit

@Joe Roe: I've got to ask, did you mean to reassess all of the WP quality assessments as 'B-class', because they surely aren't? @Keith D: had assessed the WP: Yorkshire element as 'Start' already. Not sure why the upgrade across the board here? Zakhx150 (talk) 12:24, 26 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

I did. I usually update all the templates on a page at once and it looks to meet the B class criteria to me:
  1.   Fully referenced with inline citations.
  2.   As complete as it can be given the paucity of sources.
  3.   Defined structure.
  4.   Well written.
  5.   Appropriate supporting material.
  6.   Understandable.
I think sometimes people forget what a low bar B-class really is. But if you want to stick with Start for WP Yorkshire, no problem. – Joe (talk) 15:23, 26 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Joe Roe: Thanks for the response. Perhaps this is just my personal reading of it, and whilst there is nothing technically wrong with this article and the sources are verifiable I'd argue that the experience of C-class ("Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study.") is much more appropriate here. In any case I'll leave it for the individual WikiProjects to make any amendments if they so wish. Ta. Zakhx150 (talk) 12:21, 27 June 2017 (UTC)Reply

In memoriam edit

Liz Hartley passed away this month; I've had the information via the archaeological grapevine but currently can't substantiate it with references suitable for WP. Just advising that I will amend once these become available.Zakhx150 (talk) 10:50, 5 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

It is best to wait for an obituary, or other reference, before updating an article.--Racklever (talk) 12:29, 17 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
